I know a guy who uses one all the time and says it really helps keep the weight off the arm.

I saw a guy using one and it looked like it made him swing in a pretty bad arch on each side of center. Could have just been the way he swings, but it looked to me like the swingy thing was causing the arch.

Definitely eliminates the weight of the detector and stress on the arm. I used it on my CZ5 and it was nice. I did not like being tied to my detector and you have to change your positioning a little when you are digging and retreiving your finds. Overall, if I had to swing a heavy machine, I would use one again. I just went to a lighter unit and I am happy with the freedom of not having the detector attached to me.
I use one all the time and really like it. It does make me swing a kind of curved arc but that seems to work ok for me. when I get down to dig I just lay it on the side of me and it is out of the way even though it is still attached. When I stand up it comes up with me and since I have it set to be slightly heavy on the coil end it just settles right in place as I get up. Doc is great to deal with too.

Chuck I never thought of mentioning that device to ya. It would definitely help your back/neck when swinging the AT PRO. Especially since you're retired and can get out all the time, ya old geezer!
